- We bought a bunch of ish on Wish. - Let's talk about that. (funky electronic music) (fire crackles) - Good Mythical Morning. - Online shopping has truly
opened up an entirely new world of what we as consumers
expect things to cost. For example, that rose quartz pendant that your artsy Aunt
Helen bought for 150 bucks when she was finding herself
in Santa Fe can be found in packs of 50 for two bucks without ever leaving your couch. - And if you're wondering where to find discounted treasures like that, look no further than the sponsor
of today's episode, Wish. Wish is an e-commerce platform
that lets users shop millions of products at deep discounts
straight from their phone. With incredibly low prices
and a wide range of products, shopping with Wish is
fun, affordable and easy. - So easy.
- It's also a great place to discover unique items
like the ones we're going to be exploring today.
- Mm-hmm. Wish's great deals come
directly from the manufacturer for low-cost goods, the question is, can we guess the full retail
price of these awesome items we bought on Wish for
a fraction of the cost? It's time for, Will We Be Swell At
Tossing Coins Into a Well, or Will We Bomb at Guessing
Prices at Wish.com. Sponsored by Wish. - As you can see, we have built
our very own wishing well. - There it is, there's
also a big stump over here that we're--
- And some coins. Okay so in this game, we're
gonna receive a product bought on Wish and then
with only knowledge of the product and the
price we paid on Wish, we have to guess the item's
full retail price value before the discount and whoever
gets closest gets a point. - And then it gets fun
because on the well, there are a number of
targets with price ranges. So we're gonna take turns tossing
a token towards the target and if we hit the right one, we get an additional two
points, but if we miss, I'm told that there's a troll
that lives around the well that's gonna come out
and spray us in the face with pond scum. - Hey, sup dudes? - Oh and there he is.
- Yeah. - Hey troll. - Sup guys, actually this is not my well. It's my dad's well, I'm just watching it while him and his new wife are in Cabo. - Okay, and what's your name? - Balthazaar the Afeared. (laughing)
- Okay. Seemed pretty laid-back so-- - You have pond scum in that spray bottle? - Oh yeah got some pond scum
and if you whiff your coins, I'm gonna blast ya. (laughing)
- Let's play. - Round one. - First up we have the
Ozone facial steamer face sprayer vaporizer--
- Oh face. It's a face device.
- Thank you for clarifying. - Face sprayer vaporizer. Beauty salon skin care instrument machine and we bought it for $17.
- $17? - But what's the full retail value? - Get that.
- And it's nice. Do it a little bit, yeah, I think you probably do it to yourself. - Oh it is hot.
- You don't need a friend. (chuckles) You can do it to yourself. - Of course now I can't see anything and I'm supposed to toss a token towards what I can't see anymore. - Okay, go for it Link,
'cause you are first. - We paid 17 bucks, how
could it be more than $40? You know what, I'm gonna
guess that the retail price of this thing is $72. - Wow.
- And I am going to reflect that guess by aiming for
the swingy swingy bucket. - Joke, joke.
(laughing) - You're not on my side, troll? - Hey man, I'm just here to have fun. - Okay. - Oh!
- Aw. Whiff. - It seems that I missed entirely so I earned a pond scum. - Yeah.
- Know your roll. - Open wide. - Oh ho ho gosh. I didn't realize it was--
- Okay. - Yeah.
- All right, that's enough! - I didn't know it was gonna
be a long distance pond scum. - Dude got wet.
- All right, I think you're in the right range. - I was close and then it bounced. - You're in the right range I believe. I'm gonna say $59. - Okay.
- A little bit lower. And then I'm going for the bucket as well. - Rhett, Rhett. - Oh! - You jerk!
- Nice, nice. - All right Stevie, what is
the correct retail price? - The actual retail value is $350. (Rhett laughs) - So I got a point 'cause
I was closer with my guess but then you got two points-- - For being in the right bucket. - 'Cause you hit the bucket. - What, 300, what, how? - Round two. - This is a face piece
full face view gas mask. The Wish.com price was $26
but what is it truly worth? - All right, ooh, $26,
does that feel like-- - Can you peel this off, it'll
give you some satisfaction. - Oh yeah, my pleasure.
- And also, I'll be able to see. - All right.
- This is a full face-- - I need you to be quiet when I'm peeling 'cause that's the whole, that's
what makes it satisfying. (Rhett screams) (chuckles) All right, it's off. Didn't make much of a noise. - Okay it feels nice.
- Can barely hear you which is great. - I'm gonna take this off so I can think. You wanna wear it? - Yeah. - I'm going to say $198. $198.
- What? - I'm going for the, so I guess I'm going for the bucket again. (clattering)
- Ooh. - All right you missed the bucket. - I went in the $40 well. - Nothing but well, nothing but well. - I think this thing costs $802. - Oh ho ho, wow (chuckling). - I am going for the roof! And that's quite a deal. All right. Whoa!
- Yeah! - What?
- Open wide for scum. - Oh God.
- Yeah (laughs), you're getting wet.
- Okay, next time I'm gonna close my mouth
fully before you start that. Dang it, it rolled right off, man. - It was on the roof
for a couple of seconds. - All right.
- The suggested retail value is $999. - Boom.
- What? - So I get another dolla. - So Link gets the point. - Round three. - Okay gentlemen, you're looking at the Instant Smile veneer
set uppers and lowers. The Wish.com price was $25. But what is their full retail value? - $25, okay. - I have the flexible lower and I thought it said flexible lover. - (chuckles) That's a different website. I'm gonna put in these top ones now. Technically there's
some beads that you wet and melt but you can
never see my top teeth. You put in the top teeth
on the bottom, oh the top. - You know, it's flexible,
I can do it for the top or I can do it for the bottom. - It's not like you see my teeth so much. - It looks good, you look happy, man. Right, I'll try it on the
bottom, see how it looks. - Oh.
- Is that good? - Yeah, real good. - Okay so. - We want a wisher, not a belly isher. - You know what, I think--
- Joke. - I think the price of this is $44. I'm gonna aim for the
bucket but then if I'm wrong and I hit the thing, I may be right. The bigger thing. You feel me. Going for the bucket. (clattering)
But hitting the well. Maybe that'll work out. - I kinda feel like it's
gotta be between 41 and 400 but I've gone for that so many times that I'm gonna go out on a limb
and I'm gonna say it's $402. - What? Okay, I love your-- - The gas mask was 1000 bucks, man. - You're bad at throwing. - I'm going for the bucket. The tail. - Oh! - Oh, I went in the thing. - But you still went in the well. - Yeah so--
- All right Stevie, what was the retail
price of these veneers? - These are normally $49. (Rhett chuckles) - I'm good with the retail pricing, man. - You are. - Hey guys, you should swallow those teeth and then later look around
for them in your poop. - You're fun, Balthazaar. - Round four. - Here we have 2017 sexy summer
women trendy denim shorts. - Sexy summer trendy women shorts. - Correct.
- I was thinking they were all those things.
- Denim. Deminuminum. - The Wish.com price was $8
but what is the true worth of looking straight out
of 2017 this summer? - What was the Wish price? - $8. - $8?
- What a steal. Let me help you, Rhett. All right. Come on, man. Maybe tuck the shirt in it. - I don't think I can get 'em buttoned. - There you go. They look good from the
side, show 'em that side. - How 'bout the back?
- Just think about, well, it's more of this
side that that's the skin. Just imagine that being-- - Yeah imagine that being bare. - Like little rivulets
of skin coming through. - You'd be into that. - My girlfriend wore a pair like those when we went to see 311 last summer. - They're still around, huh?
- Oh yeah. They still rule, new stuff's good. (laughing) - The new stuff, okay. Man, I keep wanting to
go back to the bucket because I just feel like
this has got to be $128. (Link sputters) - $128.
- Yeah I mean, these were full jeans at one
point before they cut off and got sexy. So I'm going for the bucket, $128. - You're bad at throwing. - Woo!
- He nailed it. (clapping) Okay--
- I don't have a lot of confidence in that
but I did hit the bucket. - I think the retail price of
these immaculate jean shorts, sexy as they are is $127. - (laughs) Okay. - Link. Link. - There's no way it costs more than $402. 'Cause I thought if I could
hedge my bets by throwing in the pail, but that
would just be stupid. - Right you get--
- It's gotta be the bucket. - You'd definitely get pond scum. - It's gotta be the bucket. - Or--
- I hit the well. All right Stevie.
- Can you believe these shorts originally cost $48. - Okay so I get a point--
- For being right. - But--
- I get a point for, I get two points for going
in the correct bucket. - Which doesn't seem
like justice but okay. - That's how the game works! - Round five. - All right we're all
tied up so this one is for all the marbles and by
marbles, I mean one of us gets to choose which Wish items we
want which could be this one. - One that Link should probably not touch. - Oh!
- It's a 27 inch ninja sword tanto blade machete with two throwing knife
full tang tactful blade block katana.
- What? - Also that was black
katana, that was the one word that was easy to
pronounce but I said block instead of black, it's black. - Look at that. - And the Wish price was $18. But what is the suggested retail value? - $18? - $18.
- Just to see what kind of blade we're dealing with, I'm gonna see how well it cuts a tree. (thumps) - Pretty good, huh? Think that tree's made of foam. (thumps)
(Link groans) - (chuckles) Nice. - $18 is the Wish price? - Correct.
- That is a-- - This is deadly. If I win, I'm taking this. - See here's the thing. I think when you look at it online and you think you want this thing, they're probably gonna price it at $311. - Wow, okay. - You know, like the band.
- Nice, nice. (Rhett chuckles) - $311 for $18. - Hey, 69. (crew laughs) - That's another number.
- Ha, yeah, sure is, dude. This guy knows what I'm talking about. - Okay so in order to hedge my bets, I'm going to go for the pail
which is the hardest to hit which might be stupid. - Okay I understand,
you're throwing it to-- - I'm guessing one thing--
- Got it. - Throwing it in another thing. - Okay. - Miss, miss. Miss. Miss. Miss. Miss. Miss. Miss. Miss. - Just testing your
commitment to this bit. - Miss! - Okay here we go.
- Dude I can do this all day. I ain't got nowhere to be. Miss. I just gotta watch this well 'til my dad gets back from Cabo. - Here we go. - Miss!
(clatters) - Oh! There's no way it's under $40.
- That was weak. - That was weak.
- Okay. - What is your guess, sir? - My guess is $312. Just gonna start there.
- Oh gosh. (Rhett laughs) - Yes, $312, but you know what, I'm going for the pail too, man. - Hedging your bets.
- I think it might actually be $412 but that's not my guess. - Okay. - $312 into the pail.
- Miss. - Miss! (Rhett laughs)
- Oh yeah! - Oh yeah, time for scum, open wide. Yeah, get those scum nutrients. - Okay, all right, I
didn't need scum behind me and in front of me so
that was unnecessary. - Okay Stevie. The retail price is. - I'm so excited to tell you it is $22. (laughing) - Yes!
- That means you win. - So I get a point. Woo! And I get to choose something
and I'm not gonna take this because I have children. I'm gonna take the face vaporizer. - Of course you are, well

My review is simply: big oof
My full thoughts are in another post (currently at the top of the sub) but yeah, this was the first GMM I've ever given a dislike.
I really clicked into the episode expecting a twist when I saw Wish in the title...
Have never been so disappointed, there are way better sponsorships they could've gone with. They are continuously on the YouTube trending page. I genuinely don't understand if this was a screwup on R&L's side or the prod. crew?
Stevie kept asking what the full retail value is, but what she SHOULD have asked is what ridiculously marked up price does Wish say it is so the percent discount is bigger
Google ANY of the items listed in the episode. You won't find any of them even close to the retail price (Oh, and what you DO find will be much better quality)
Judging from what people have said in the other thread wish do sound like a shitty company to work with. It's a shame though, the game itself was fun.
